Bad toddler vent

I mean please tell me Im not the only one here.....DS is so beyond bad..I cant even begin to explain ....and everyone always laughs at him that just makes me more crazy...(Maybe because Im due in 5 weeks also) I try to do timeouts he just laughs at me...When I yell at him...he says go mommy go mommy and that just makes me what to scream! Also my DH is in the restaurant business so his help is so very minimal.. please tell me once he starts his little pre school he will get better...I just feel so bad Im always yelling at him, also I keep wishing the time away ...I say to myself god I wish he was in kindergarten already

Im with you. Ds is a HUGE handfull. I try timeout I think he isnto young for them (19 months). I have smacked his bottom I have taken things away. Nothing works. A for instance, i was in rite aid the other day. I say that i will get him a car pick one. Well he picks like five. So I tell him we need to put some back and start to do so. Well you would have thought I shot himnin the foot. He flipped out pulled my shirt and bra so bad thT my boob fell out of the bottom of my bra. All this while the diphead behind the counter is staringr at me i was livid with him and you know you cant smack your kid infront of anyone. So i put all the cars back he got nothing that was even worse. He screamed the entire way home. Mind you we have about 50 cars here. He is abeast. Dh lets him get away with murder because he works like mad so he leaves being the bad guy to me. All i do is yell i literally countdown to bedtime some days. Its very hard. If this is going on now two and three should be freaking wonderful.

wow i know it is so hard...Im glad that Im not the only one who calls their child a beast!! I find myself counting down the hours until bedtime also...for instance today I started counting down the hours at 11am! I just feel so so very gulity with having these feelings also I guess I keep making myself so nervous because when #2 gets here soon what the heck is going to go on in this house makes me so scared...

Re: Bad toddler vent

Aiden can be a handful but I find that certain situations make it worse. I take quick shopping trips in and out. I make sure that he is able to run around outside at least an hour or more a day. He takes a nap everyday. He will try and bite me when he is frustrated but I say no and redirect him. He doesn't have many words yet so I know that some of the screaching and whining are his ways of getting his point across. His really cranky times are in the evening so I keep him busy -- coloring, reading, playing with blocks etc. He also loves Pajanimals so I throw that on in the evenings. A long bath also helps :)
